At first, I was quite nervous not knowing what to expect and being unsure how incoming students would receive the message that I want trying to get across. But, after giving the presentation five times now, I think I&#8217;ve acquired public speaking as a new skill. It&#8217;s something I hope to do more of in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Now about &#8220;Respect the M.&#8221; It&#8217;s a campaign launched over a year ago to give students a better understanding of the obligation they have to the university community. I was able to hear from many orientation leaders about what &#8220;Respect the M&#8221; meant to them, but never took the time to really reflect on what it meant to me.<\/p>\n<p>When I think of what &#8220;Respect the M&#8221; means to me, I believe that every person on this campus is part of the &#8220;M.&#8221; Without all of those parts of the &#8220;M&#8221; this university would not be able to work the way it does. Being part of the &#8220;M&#8221; means a larger responsibility and also respecting others and treating them way that you want to be treated. It&#8217;s also knowing you can have an effect on the overall view of the &#8220;M&#8221; with just one wrong action.<\/p>\n<p>Ole Miss is an amazing place where students, faculty, staff and alumni come together and form a family. If we all take a little time to live for the &#8220;M&#8221; we&#8217;ll help make our world a much better place.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Given that I&#8217;ve only been in the &#8220;real world&#8221; for just over a year now, I haven&#8217;t had many opportunities to give presentations.
